About The Book
Description
Organizations must evolve to keep up with today’s dynamic and competitive environment. This book explores a set of concepts, theories and techniques that address the successful planning and implementation of change across an organization. It focuses on why a company needs to change, what can be changed and how to appropriately plan and implement that change. The authors also explain how individuals, groups, and the organization can improve their ability to move through the change process. The text was written to help the reader be more comfortable with the uncertainties of change. Chapter Format
The beginning of each chapter provides highlights of the chapter (Chapter at a Glance), a Vignette to provide a real-world perspective on the subject areas addressed, and a brief summary of what will be covered in the chapter (Chapter Perspective). The main text of each chapter covers concepts, theory and techniques that apply to the subject areas covered and include brief real-world examples that relate to that content. At the end of each chapter there are readings and cases (22 total readings and cases) that allow for discussion of the application of the concepts, theory and techniques covered. For each reading and case, the authors have provided a focus, questions, and linkage to the chapter. This format enables the reader to focus on key topic areas and to then apply them to real-world situations. This combination of content and application enables the reader to draw upon their own experiences and therefore results in optimal learning.
